6 years ago today I had the honour to be at Arromanches at dawn on D-Day75, at the start of a 44km (actually over 50km due to security diversion for Macron) stroll along the landing beaches, ending at Pegasus Bridge. Amazing experience and a great way to remember the sacrifices made in 1944. #DDay

Book Review – That Which May Destroy You by Abda Khan @chiselbury @abdakhan5 About the Book The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth…? Miriam Hassan stands in the defendant’s dock at Birmingham Crown Court charged with the cold-blooded murder of her well-known, rich, charismatic husband Zaf, to which she pleads not guilty. However, nothing is straightforward. There is conflicting witness testimony. The couple argued on the day in question, and Miriam was overheard threatening him.
